Beast World: From Villainess to Cub-Raising Chef novel Chapter 154

Chapter 154: Chapter 153: Li Chenlin’s Mother Goes Missing

The abrupt, nonsensical words made Bai Su furrow her brow slightly.

Bablo and Kong Ji grew even more vigilant.

A kind person in the crowd spoke up. "Miss Bai Su, that’s a beggar who showed up in the city recently. She’s been hanging around this area for days. She’s a bit of a simpleton."

"That’s right, Miss Bai Su. You don’t have to pay her any mind. She might be looking for her lost daughter."

"No, it’s her daughter-in-law!"

"Bullshit! She’s definitely looking for her lost child!"

Everyone chattered at once, but no one could say for sure where the woman came from.

Bai Su met the beggar’s gaze, and for some reason, her heart softened. She said to Bablo, "Give her some money for food."

Bablo nodded, blocking the woman from getting closer.

Bai Su found the situation strange.

In the Federation, females weren’t supposed to be treated like this.

Even when she had been exiled, she had still received a 3,000-credit monthly subsidy from the Federation.

So there was no reason for anyone to be reduced to begging.

But this female seemed a bit simple-minded, and when she held out the doll, her wrists were covered in scars.

It looked like she had been abused.

A wave of sympathy washed over her for no particular reason. Shaking her head, she pushed the matter to the back of her mind.

Bai Su arrived at the hospital to visit Yan Qingya.

Yan Qingya had just finished nursing her four children and put them down to sleep. Her Beast Husbands were watching over them now.

Seeing this, Bai Su didn’t want to disturb them. She just left the food, said a quick hello to Yan Qingya’s Beast Husbands, and turned to leave.

On the way back to the restaurant, she got caught in rush hour traffic.

Bai Su was staring out the window, bored, when she suddenly spotted a blurry figure in the rearview mirror.

Her stumbling gait and filthy clothes made her look exceptionally pitiful.

She seemed to recognize Bai Su’s car and started jogging anxiously toward it, clutching a doll to her chest as she drew closer and closer.

The weather had just started to warm up, but after the sun set, it was still a bit cold.

The beggar’s hands and feet were red from the cold, and her toes were bleeding.

Her gaze was so intense, like an anxious child lost in a strange place who had just spotted Bai Su, the only person she recognized.

Bai Su’s heart softened, and she had Kong Ji pull the car over.

The beggar quickly caught up, looking at Bai Su eagerly.

Bai Su said, "Bablo, get her in the car. We’re taking her back with us."

Bablo frowned slightly. "Miss Bai Su, we don’t know who she is."

"It’s fine," Bai Su replied.

For some reason, even though she didn’t know this female, Bai Su’s heart couldn’t help but soften whenever she met her clear, innocent eyes.

Bablo had no choice but to help the woman into the car.

Bai Su brought the woman back to the residence, had someone give her food and a bath, and only then was she brought to see her.

When the beggar saw Bai Su in the magnificent side hall, she finally let out a sigh of relief, still clutching the doll tightly in her hand.

The side hall was full of guards.

The three little ones were watching the beggar lady warily.

Bai Xiaoshe whispered, "Could she be Leia in disguise?"

Bai Xiao Zhu shook his head. "No way. Leia is a shorty. She’s not even as tall as me."

Bai Xiaolang added cautiously, "What if last time was a disguise? Or maybe both are disguises?"

Bai Su walked over and looked at the three of them with amusement. "Alright, you three. Go play somewhere else."

Surrounded by the three little ones, the beggar was trembling and didn’t dare to move.

Bai Xiaolang shook his head. "No! I have to stay here and protect you!"

Bai Xiaoshe and Bai Xiao Zhu said in unison, "Us too!"

Bai Su paid them no mind and walked over to the woman, asking gently, "Do you know me?"

The beggar nodded meekly.

"Did you come looking for me on purpose?" Bai Su asked.

The beggar nodded again.
